I started eating 811rv as of last Saturday 06/21/2014. I was on a high protein, low carb vegan diet for 2 years (loading up on vegan protein shakes and seitan, very little fruits and sugars). I would get eczema every once in a while on the inner right elbow but it flared up as soon as last Tuesday and kept on getting worse rapidly. I also have it on the inner left elbow now and its beginning to show up on my cheeks, close to the nose, below the eyes.

I'm eating a lot of bananas, water melon, mangoes, and salads at night. I'm getting around 3200 calories and taking a Vitamin D and Vitamin B12 supplement. Everything looks good on cronometer.com.

I cut out kale, spinach (high oxalates) and tomatoes, bell peppers (nightshade foods) two days ago, as someone on a similar post suggested could be causing it, but haven't seem any improvement yet.

I was taking adaptogens like ashwagandha, maca and multivitamin, ZMA (zinc), turmeric, ginger supplement and primrose oil that I stopped taking too.

The eczema is painful, it hurts even to fold my arms. Should I have transitioned slowly? Should I add back some of these supplements and wean myself off more gracefully? Are there any other vegan foods I must avoid like lemons, limes and other citruses?
